Senior Housing Properties Trust (SNH) is a real estate investment trust, or
REIT, which owns independent living and assisted living communities, continuing
care retirement communities, nursing homes and wellness centers located
throughout the United States. All of our properties are triple net leased,
meaning that each tenant pays us rent, and also is responsible to pay all
operating costs, taxes, insurance and maintenance costs that arise from the
ownership and use of our property. Our
224 properties
are leased to
11 tenants under
13 separate
leases.
SNH was created by
HRPT Properties Trust (NYSE: HRP) in 1998 and spun out to HRPT's
shareholders in 1999 as a separate publicly traded REIT on the New York Stock
Exchange. We are included in a number of financial indices, including the
Russell 2000®, the MSCI US REIT Index, the S&P REIT Composite Index, the
S&P SmallCap 600 and the FTSE EPRA/NAREIT United States Index.
